Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Turn + coat: जो बार-बार अपना coat turn करता रहे — कभी इस पक्ष का कोट, कभी उस पक्ष का। ऐसा पाला बदलने वाला ही turncoat है।
Split it: TURN + COAT. Picture a man who keeps turning his coat — today he wears the coat of one side, tomorrow the coat of the other. One who changes sides like this is a turncoat.
